Katahdin Trust Company

First Time Homebuyer

 

First-Time Homebuyer

Afford a home of your own.

  • Great fixed rate. 0.25% lower than our fixed rate mortgage
  • Fast credit decision. Get approved quickly with local servicing
  • Quick turnaround. Close loan generally within 30 days

This type of loan provides reduced down payment and closing costs to new homeowners who may not qualify for a conventional mortgage loan.

Choose from a variety of payment terms along with the flexibility of weekly, bi-weekly or monthly payments. We can even set-up your payment to be automatically transferred from your Katahdin Trust Company checking account, so you'll never have to worry about a late payment. Enjoy these other great benefits:

  • No application fee.
  • No seller points required.
  • No recapture tax liabilities when you sell your home.
  • No home inspection (although we always recommend one).
  • Free flood determination.
  • Free credit bureau report.
